Chapter 518 Promise Me a Little Thing

It was also the first time for Su Xiaoqiang to sit in economy class, and the second time for Liu Miaomiao. This was mainly to accompany Chen Wenwen. But for Su Xiaoqiang, this was a very novel experience.

As the plane’s announcement ended, Liu Miaomiao, Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen all turned off their cell phones.

At the same time, a cold, mechanical female voice came from the phone call that Lu Mingfei made to Liu Miaomiao.

“The number you dialed is powered off. Please try again later. Sorry…”

Lu Mingfei looked at the phone screen in confusion. He tried to call Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen, but their phones were turned off without exception.

It wasn’t until I called Xia Mi that a familiar girl’s voice finally answered the phone and replied:
“Eh? Senior Brother, have you arrived home yet? Senior Sister Liu and the others? Senior Sister Liu and the others have started their study tour this week, didn’t you know?”

“School trip?”

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and vaguely remembered from the memories that rolled in like clouds and mist that in his previous life, it seemed that not long after the start of the second year of high school, the first-year students went on a group study tour.

In China, it is called study tour, and in Japan, it is called study tour.

But after all, this happened a long time ago. Looking back now, Lu Mingfei only remembered that his class went to Shanghai for a week.

At that time, Lu Mingfei had not yet mediated between Su Xiaoqiang, Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen, and the relationship between the three was a bit tit-for-tat.

The wealthy Su Xiaoqiang suggested going to Europe; Liu Miaomiao felt that Europe was too far away and that Japan would be a better choice if going abroad; while Chen Wenwen thought that it would be bad to go abroad in an unfamiliar place and suggested traveling around the country, and Shanghai would be a good choice.

In the final class vote, Chen Wenwen’s proposal won by one vote.

There was also a small episode, that is, Su Xiaoqiang originally wanted to win over Lu Mingfei by paying for all of his air tickets and accommodation expenses. Lu Mingfei struggled for several days and finally voted for the Magic City. The angry little goddess rolled her eyes when she saw Lu Mingfei during the entire school trip.

In fact, Lu Mingfei didn’t support going to Shanghai just because Chen Wenwen suggested it… It was simply because there was a StarCraft Internet cafe competition in Shanghai at that time, and the champion could directly get an invitation to the IEM regional competition.

While others traveled in groups of three or five, Lu Mingfei was alone in the Internet cafe competition. If Lu Mingfei had not been found to be underage in the semi-finals, he might have made it all the way to IEM.

By then, the world will have one less dragon slayer and one more e-sports expert.

Lu Mingfei recalled that when he was leaving the airport today, he saw an Audi car that looked like the one belonging to the little goddess driving towards the airport.

At that time he thought he had seen it wrong, but now it seems that it was not the case. It was probably Uncle Li who drove Miaomiao, Qiangqiang and others to the airport to catch a plane.

He sighed inwardly, feeling rather helpless. He had never expected that he would come back specially before going to Neon, and actually pass by them by chance.

But this was also his own problem. After all, if he had told the little girls that he was coming back today, they would have probably preferred to cancel the school trip and would have stayed here to wait for him to come back.

I wanted to give them a surprise, but I didn’t expect it to go so wrong.

But forget it…it’s nice for them to go out and play together occasionally. They can’t always revolve around me.

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei asked Xia Mi on the phone: “By the way, Junior Sister, do you know where Miaomiao and the others are going on their school trip?”

Xia Mi said: “Well… I didn’t ask, I just know it seems to be voted by the class.”

Lu Mingfei nodded. Since it was a class vote, they should go to the Magic City like in their previous life.

“correct.”

Lu Mingfei seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly changed the subject and spoke. “What’s wrong?” Xia Mi asked.

“Nothing.”

Lu Mingfei scratched his head, and said in a rare shy tone, “Thank you, Junior Sister.”

Xia Mi, who was on the other side of the microphone, was suddenly stunned with a sweet smile on her face. She obviously didn’t realize that Lu Mingfei would suddenly start to thank her.

Lu Mingfei said, “Thank you, Junior Sister, for sending the Word Spirit in time. If it weren’t for you, Junior Sister, I might have really been feeding fish at the bottom of the Three Gorges this time… Of course, I might have been feeding dragons.”

Several seconds passed before the voice of the girl came out of the microphone again. Only the hissing sound of electricity could be heard.

Lu Mingfei didn’t think there was anything wrong with thanking him. But when Xia Mi remained silent, Lu Mingfei became a little nervous…

I don’t know how long I waited, but suddenly a soft laugh came from the microphone, like the sound of a spring flowing through the mountains and forests.

“Are you thanking me just for this matter? Aren’t you being too polite, brother? I’ve never seen you be so polite to Senior Sister Liu, Senior Sister Su, Senior Sister Chen and the others.”

“That’s what I said…”

“and!”

Xia Mi’s voice suddenly rose high, and then fell softly: “If something really happened to you, Senior Brother… I wouldn’t be able to survive.”

If another girl said this to Lu Mingfei, he might feel that it was a bit too heavy. It’s like one person saying to another person, “We’re going to be a band for life.” What can last a lifetime in this world? Who will die because of another person? Very few, so few that they can be ignored.

But when Lu Mingfei heard these words from Xia Mi, he felt his heart suddenly twitch. Although Xia Mi’s tone was as sunny and cheerful as ever, Lu Mingfei probably only knew how many years Xia Mi had been wandering alone in this world. Her sunshine was just to cover up the empty room in her heart.

And Lu Mingfei was the ray of sunshine that accidentally shone into Xia Mi’s heart during these thousands of years.

If this ray of sunshine really disappeared suddenly one day, then the girl named Xia Mi would probably no longer exist.

Lu Mingfei smiled brightly and replied softly: “Well, don’t worry, I will be fine. But you still have to thank Junior Sister. Junior Sister, what gift do you want?”

“Um……”

Xia Mi responded in a somewhat aggrieved and coquettish voice: “No need for gifts or anything, I just have a small matter, I wonder if Senior Brother can agree to it…”

“What’s the small matter?” Lu Mingfei asked.

“Brother, please agree first~”

Lu Mingfei thought about it and felt that Xia Mi just wanted to cosplay some 2D characters again, wanted to buy some skirts… at most, she was depressed because she hadn’t seen him for a long time, and wanted to do whatever she wanted to him tonight… these were not excessive requests. In addition, Xia Mi really helped him a lot in this mission.

So he nodded and said, “Okay, I promise you. So what is the little thing you are talking about, Junior Sister?”

Xia Mi’s voice suddenly became full of smiles: “I heard that you are going to Neon soon, and I want to go with you… How is it? It’s not a big deal, right?”
